Or Vim users, they have those features too.

But for the Neovim users (including myself), this is handy if they would like to use other applications besides neovim while keeping their neovim session open.

vmux [1] might be of interest to you.

It uses the (n)vim remote API with tmux to maintain a global (n)vim session and redirects files opened via `vmux` back to the global session and switches to the window in tmux that session is visible in.

Hints:

- use `pipx` [2] to install `vmux` to make it available globally so you don't need to mess around with virtual environments.

- just `alias nvim=vmux`, and use `command nvim` if you need the real thing.

- I set the following in my profile file:

  export VMUX_EDITOR="nvim"
  export VMUX_GLOBAL="true"

  alias nvim=vmux
